Education has emerged — once again — as the most important issue in the race to be Nevada’s governor. Republican Adam Laxalt and Democrat Steve Sisolak both agree that Nevada needs to spend more.
I have been following the stories about the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority for several months. There is corruption at the highest level, from the administration to the board.
